Using images in the email body text

To include your company logo in the email body text, you must use an HTML file as email body.

There are two ways to include images in the email body text:

  • Place an image on a web page. Specify the URL with the reference to the image location on your server in the email.
  • Attach the image to the email. Add a reference to this attachment in the email body.

Use case:

  • Use the RFQ document type created earlier.
  • You include an image in the email body text, which is located on a local drive.

Complete these steps:

  1. Start the Document Types (ttrpi2510m000) session.
  2. Select the RFQ document type and open its details.
  3. Add a new document type part to the document type and specify this information:
    • Destination Type : Email
    • Part Type : File to Attach
    • Simple Content : image1
    • Separate File : Yes
  4. Click Upload to upload the local image and link this to the new document type part.
  5. Specify the Simple Content field, for example: image1.
  6. In the HTML file that is uploaded as body, specify the src attribute of the img tag:
    src=cid:image1

    The same name is used as simple content in the document type part, prefixed with cid:

  7. Upload the HTML file again in the other document type part that is used as Email Body.
  8. Click Validate to validate the document type.
  9. Run the Request for Quotations session.
  10. Print a Request for Quotation to the Document Output Management device and view the results.
